Governor and her present renrescntotiye
in the United States Senate
There are many reasons which wopld oo
to make Governor Stanford an excention-
allv strong candidate in fact of ali the
names that have been prominently men

seryatiye element in his own Marty that
would not support him if he were nomi-

Sherman's views ON the financial ouestion
it is sufficient to saw that thew are not
popular with a large section of the conn
try. he has also the disadvantage of hail
feeling that in the distribution of national
honors that State has for MANY wears mast
had considerably more than her share
Allison. of Iowa, is undoubtedly ponuI,r
in the great Northwest but his Qualities
are of the NEGATIVE order his Greatest
recommendation being that there Is little
if ANYTHING, to be said against him. The
name of Hawlev. of Connecticut has been
mentioned, but he is little known in the
West. and his name would excite Int little
enthusiasm. In like manner the whole
list of Republican candidates could be RIM
over, and reasons found which would oper-
ate AGAINST their candidacy
Coming TO Governor Stanford there are
many reasons which would make his can
didacy peculiarIv acceptable to the conn
try and esnecially 70 the reonIa of tho
Pacific coast. There is FEELING that in
